How long does the SRAM AXS battery last?
SRAM AXS batteries provide 20+ hours of ride time per charge, with most riders charging monthly. The AXS app provides real-time battery monitoring and low-power alerts to ensure you're never caught without power.
Can I upgrade my existing Eagle groupset to AXS?
Yes! SRAM offers AXS upgrade kits for GX, X01, and XX1 Eagle groupsets. Upgrade kits work with your existing cassette, chain, and crankset—only the derailleur and shifter components change, making it a cost-effective wireless conversion.
What's the difference between AXS and eTap wireless systems?
AXS is SRAM's latest wireless technology evolution, featuring smartphone app integration, improved battery life (20+ hours vs ~15 hours), and cross-platform compatibility between road and mountain systems. eTap was the first pioneering wireless platform, while AXS represents the advanced second generation and base for the future.
How does wireless shifting perform in Australian weather conditions?
AXS wireless technology excels in harsh conditions including mud, rain, and extreme temperatures. Unlike cable systems that can stretch, bind, or corrode, AXS maintains consistent performance regardless of weather, making it ideal for Australian trail conditions.
What happens if my AXS battery dies during a ride?
AXS systems provide multiple low-battery warnings well in advance through the app and LED indicators. In the unlikely event of complete battery failure, you can manually shift the derailleur to a middle gear to complete your ride safely.
